never said i was healthy....and you have no clue....I'm saying the insurance is too costly and the deductible is too high and they take long to payout and the doctors dont like it and they often refer my treatments to out of net work providers which means it cant be used towards the deductible.

and car insurance is 1,000 per year, not 600$ per month

"Hey doc that doctor you referred me to is not in my network, can you please refer me to someone else?" Try it and if you get pushback then go to a different doctor. All the issues you cite I empathize with and quite frankly have been experiencing them for my entire adult life. At least now if you REALLY get sick your insurance can't drop you forcing you into financial ruin. I saw that happen and it scared the **** out of me.

you need to double check on that out of network stuff. it depends on if it's covered. when I had neck surgery last fall, the neurosurgeon wasn't in network, but I didn't have any others within 50 miles, so they covered just like it was in network. if they refer you to a specialist, and they're the only game in town, it may be covered.
and yes, it is costly-blame those trying to make a profit off of illness. blame trying to create dividends for shareholders.
as for your last line...I know, I'm in the business. health care is nothing like insurance for property or vehicles, etc.

Everything the government does with taxes concerning the levels is to embed your precious mind with the thought process that it is absolutely pointless to earn more money unless you make enough where you can hire an accountant and attorneys to hide the money from the IRS.

So any person who is making good money but not enough to be like a politician is literally effed sideways by an infected schlong.

So yeah Obamacare is great if you're a broke idiot who wants Hillary to win because Trump is a white man and you hate strong white men who want to protect other white men and women from a group of people that have hated our kind for centuries.

But yeah it's good. It's all the evil insurance companies fault and not the assholes who didn't read the bill but signed it anyways because omg racism black guy in office have to lick his ******* cause slavery.

I pay the tax, btw. The deductibles are way too high. If anything were to happen I'd be bankrupt anyway.

It's horrible, unfair coverage that discriminates and punishes the healthy.

I am taxed for being healthy.

So 10 bad health welfare queens can continue their bad habits.

Sorry but there's no way it's going to save ME money. Maybe Scumbag Magee.

But then again it seems all our politicians care about are the super rich and they use the poor to invoke fear in the working class.

Working class needs to all quit. Then what? It all ends..

In fact all white men should stop working in protest.

2nd year of paying the tax. It was cheaper than one month's premium. Haven't had health insurance in 26 years.

Ironically if I had the insurance, I couldn't afford to go to the doctor. Not having insurance is my choice. I would think that would be fine for all the pro choice people.
